Yep. Notice I edited out the laughable line, “The USPS does not get taxpayer funds.”

A few years ago I was in a Post Office and ran into some stupid rule. The clerk seemed to expect me to complain, but I just shrugged and said, "I could argue, but I know the government will win."
She went ballistic on me -- "We are NOT the government! We are a private company! We receive no tax dollars!"
I shrugged again and said, "Sure Lady. Whatever you say."

Back around 1994, when a postage increase went into effect, our newspaper said all postal revenue went into the gov’t general found, then the gov’t would give the P.O. a budget, if the P.O. was able to operate within that budget it was said to make a profit, if it needed more money to operate it was said to loose money. The paper said that went into effect in 1968. I doubt if anything has changed.

Why is that laughable? You hold $78 billion on deposit from payments made for postal retirements ~ your boy Geithner took it to pay your bills.
The RATE PAYERS PAY POSTAGE. That's how USPS is financed. You as a TAX PAYER have no right to POSTAGE.
